(HBO) - The People’s Committee of Mai Chau district and the GNI organization of the Republic of Korea on November 25 signed a Memorandum of Understanding on cooperating to implement the KIA Green Light Project in Vietnam.
Representatives
from the People’s Committee of Mai Chau district and the GNI sign the MoU.
It is estimated that 23.9 tonnes of waste are
discharged in Mai Chau district each day. The district already has a waste treatment
facility in Xam Khoe commune, which processes 6.8 tonnes of garbage collected
from six out of 17 communes and towns in the district. The facility cannot meet
the demand for waste sorting and treatment in the district due to the big
volume of waste. Therefore, the new project is hoped to improve the
environmental sanitation, create sustainable livelihood and enhance the quality
of life in the district.
The project focuses on four main contents, which
are upgrading the waste treatment facility in Xam Khoe, building a playground
for children using recycled materials, launching an environmental protection
awareness campaign, and setting up and running a group to develop recycling as
a livelihood.
The project is being implemented from September
this year to December 2021 at a total investment of 379,774 USD (8 billion
VND).
At the MoU signing ceremony, signing parties
pledged to ensure waste treatment, contributing to improving the environment,
protecting public health and creating green, clean and beautiful landscape in
residential areas in the district./.
In Hoa Binh province, 11 traditional craft villages with more than 400 small-scaled production households have put in place a clean and green production model, establishing new standards for sustainable development. Waste collection sites and wastewater treatment facilities have been meticulously managed by local residents.
To make it easier for the residents to handle administrative procedures, Yen Bong Commune (Lac Thuy District) has identified the administrative reform as one of its key tasks. By implementing a range of synchronized solutions, the commune has seen the positive changes in the administrative reform, meeting the needs of its people.
Mai Chau district has firmly established itself as a standout destination on Vietnam’s tourism map, attracting both domestic and international visitors with its breathtaking landscapes, rich ethnic culture, and warm hospitality. However, beyond its natural and cultural charm, a secure and well-managed tourism environment has added to Mai Chau’s appeal.
As Vietnam enters a new phase of economic and administrative reform in 2025, Hoa Binh province is stepping up its efforts to streamline governance, boost economic growth, and attract investment.
